>I am bonding the plates in place but cutting a hole where the door handle
bolt head is located. I used a nut plat in the outside handle before bonding
wood on and figure if i need in there for anyother reason I will just cut
it
and do it again. The hole will alow me to take the outside handle off or
to
squirt in some lubrication. Maby I will just put in a removable plug to
cover it.<

The manual calls for the plates to be bonded. I suspect that this is to
ensure
adequate strength is achieved. I did exactly as Jeff mentioned above by
drilling a 1" hole and fitting a 1" blind grommet. This leaves a neat finish
and enables access to remove the handle if required.
